Racing in Alaska

Alaska runs a year-round race calendar, so there’s almost always a race near you. The calendar is busiest in September, October, and June, with races most often held in Anchorage.

Races in Alaska cross tundra, boreal forest, and glacier-carved valleys beneath the Alaska Range, with a rugged coastline stretching from the Kenai Peninsula to the Inside Passage. Courses swing from flat coastal trail runs to mountain ultras with real elevation gain near Denali's foothills.

Conditions vary widely by region across Alaska, so weather lives where it’s accurate — each race page shows its typical race-day high, low, and rain chance from NOAA climate normals for that venue and date.
